Remember, blog’s due to shut down in an hour for the server switch. Just in time to go have a nice evening out in the meatspace.
See you all sometime tomorrow morning, assuming Murphy the Trickster God and MisterMix play nice!

I’ve been planning all year long for this night of constant blogging on the Balloon Juice site. I just sat down at the computer and look forward to many interesting threads and intelligent comments with which to interact. This is gonna be a great night!

Here we go…..

This server switch is something up with which I will not put!
Punchy
What am I supposed to do for an entire hour?

Skinny assed thread needs a sammich.

@TaMara (BHF): Trying your pressure cooker corned beef recipe tonight! [fingers crossed]
gogol's wife
Is it dead already? Testing. Or will Balloon Juice just be completely inaccessible?
Baud
But I have so much more to say…

@jeffreyw:
I have just that kind of meat on hand. But no peppers, alas.

Tonight?! I just sent my 18-yr-old daughter off on her first road trip, in her first car, which she bought herself after saving over a year. Yay her! She’s traveling 900 miles, Vegas to Reno/Tahoe & back, with a friend one way, solo on the way back.
Edit to add: I write this, because now I won’t even have the commentary of BJ to keep me distracted.
I know she’s fine doing it (please FSM no car trouble), but still; my nerves.
This too shall pass.

@jeffreyw: Mmm…bulgogi! What recipe are you using?
22over7
@jeffreyw:
Yummy. Tonight is roast chicken, but tomorrow is leftover pulled pork sammiches.
See you all tomorrow?
scav
@Yutsano: Missing that recipe is going to mess more with my mind than threads, in all honesty.
gogol's wife
@jeffreyw:
Oops, my quick look read that as red roasted peppers, not catsup. Looks as if we’re having the same thing tonight.

Is this thing on? I need something to entertain me while I sit in a hotel lobby waiting for my aunt.

Goodbye everyone. It was nice knowing you! Maybe we’ll meet again on another blog somewhere! Don’t give up hope! There’s no place like BJ … there’s no place like BJ …

Just finished the navy bean soup with carrots, collards and smoked turkey necks!

Maybe if we all click our ruby slippers at the same time….

“I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.” An entire blog goes GBCW (fn)!
Valdivia
how will I make it through an evening of spiced rum and toe pain without BJ?
on the cat front–the new little one (Quincy, we got him about 2 months ago) has finally settled in which is just in time as my other old red tabby is missing his sweet brother who passed and feeling lonely.
Baud
Damn the sequester cuts!
BillinGlendaleCA
@Yutsano: We’re having kalbi tonight, wifey’s orders.
AL: What is this meatspace thing you speak of? And while you’re at it, what is this snow stuff you all keep on talking about lately, I’ve been curious about that as well.
greennotGreen
But, but, but…Saturday night! Don’t you guys know that the people who hang out here Saturday night don’t have social lives? What are we supposed to do during the shut down? I am bereft!
(Please forward to mistermix to stimulate another rant. That should entertain us enough to tide us over.)
raven
If I wasn’t banned I’d invite everyone to FDL for the evening!
raven
@greennotGreen: Watch hoop.
dmsilev
I blame Obama.

@efgoldman: How about the people sitting in front of empty screens repeatedly clicking “refresh” so they can be the first comment after the switch?
Baud
@efgoldman:
Last one out, please turn off the lights.

@cckids:
My kid is 24 and the nerve thing hasn’t gotten any better. And why the hell did he have to get a girlfriend who lives 60 miles away? With 2 million people to choose from right next door…

@lamh35:
Stylin’! What a cutie pie.
patroclus
Aw man – I just got tied up on a phone call and got delayed on my all nighter bloggin on the Balloon Juice site. How come there haven’t been any new threads since my last post? I’m really looking forward to some great discussions tonight!
greennotGreen
@raven: No, I’ll watch a different kind of net flicks.

@efgoldman: Well, me, for one. FYWP already ate one of my comments – I thought it was the end.
Of course, when the site gets back online, all past comments will go down the memory hole.
Suffern ACE
The Croods was good. Humorous even. I’m worried that this will be the last post. Maybe we can meet again in that great cloud in the sky.

How long does it take to do mysqldump, scp, mysql <dumpfile?

@raven:
We should all come back as raging wingnuts. That’ll teach them to end our epistemic closure.

@efgoldman: I have obtained some advance footage of what will happen in the server room as the blog goes offline.
